ML2724 2.4GHz Low-IF 1.5Mbps FSK Transceiver Final Datasheet GENERAL DESCRIPTION The ML2724 is a fully integrated 1.5Mbps frequency shift keyed (FSK) transceiver that operates in the unlicensed 2.4GHz ISM frequency band. The device has been optimized for digital cordless telephone applications and includes all the frequency generation, receive and transmit functions. Automatically adjusted filters eliminate mechanical tuning. Closed loop modulation eliminates frequency drift and permits practically unlimited TX duration. The transmitter generates a 3dBm FSK output signal. The 1.5Mbps data rate permits data spreading, such as Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) modulation, which improves range. The dual conversion Low-IF receiver has all of the sensitivity and selectivity advantages of a traditional super-heterodyne without requiring costly, bulky external filters, while providing the integration advantages of direct conversion. The phase locked loop (PLL) synthesizer is completely integrated, including the voltage controlled oscillator (VCO), tuning circuits, and VCO resonator. This allows the ML2724 to be used in frequency hopped spread spectrum (FHSS) applications. The ML2724 contains internal voltage regulation. It also contains PLL and transmitter configuration registers. The device can be placed in a low power standby mode for current sensitive applications. It is packaged in a "Green" Pb-Free 32TQFP.

The device has been optimized for digital cordless telephone applications and includes all the frequency generation, receive and transmit functions for a raw data rate of 1.5Mbps. This high data rate allows for data spreading, such as Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) modulation, which improves range. The ML2724 receiver architecture is a dual conversion Low IF, which has all of the sensitivity and selectivity advantages of a traditional super-heterodyne receiver without requiring costly, bulky external filters. The RF mixer down-converts the 2.4GHz RF input signal to the first intermediate frequency (IF), where it is filtered to remove adjacent channel signals. An active image reject mixer converts this signal down to a Low IF frequency, where the data is limited, filtered, and demodulated. This architecture provides all the benefits of direct conversion to baseband while maintaining the stability and robustness of a traditional super-heterodyne. A single synthesizer is used for both the receiver and the FSK transmitter. The phase locked loop (PLL) is completely integrated, including the voltage controlled oscillator (VCO), tuning circuits, and VCO resonator. In RECEIVE MODE, the ML2724 is a dual conversion Low IF receiver. No external SAW filters are required. The integrated image reject mixer gives sufficient rejection in this channel. All channel filtering and demodulation is performed using active filters, which are automatically aligned. A matched bit rate filter and a data slicer follow the demodulator. The sliced data is provided at the DOUT pin, and the analog data is available at AOUT. In TRANSMIT MODE, the ML2724 generates a 2.4GHz output using the transmit mixer. An auto-aligned transmit data filter and modulation compensation circuit results in an adjustment-free transmitter. The VCO is modulated by the transmit data, which is put through a sigma-delta fractional-N PLL ensuring modulation accuracy. This modulation occurs while the phase locked loop is closed, thus allowing practically infinite transmit or receive times with excellent frequency accuracy and stability. A 3dBm FSK-modulated differential signal is output at the TXO/TXOB pins at the 2.4GHz carrier frequency. The integrated PLL frequency synthesizer includes a fully integrated VCO, prescaler, phase detector and charge pump. The reference frequency is generated from the incoming signal at the FREF pin, which can be either 6.144MHz or 12.288MHz. The loop filter is external to allow customers to optimize their loop bandwidth to their system's lock time and in-band phase noise requirements. This frequency-agile synthesizer allows the ML2724 to be used in frequency hopped spread spectrum (FHSS) applications with nominal channel spacing of 2.048MHz. Carrier frequency is programmed via the configuration registers and 3-wire serial interface. The VCO tank circuit (inductor and varactor) is fully integrated.

XCEN is the chip enable/disable control pin, which sets the part in operational or STANDBY modes. The relationship between the parallel control lines and the mode of operation of the IC is given in Table 1. XCEN 0 1 1 RXON X 1 0 MODE STANDBY RECEIVE TRANSMIT FUNCTION Control interfaces active, all other circuits powered down Receiver time slot Transmit time slot Table 1: Modes of Operation MODE CONTROL The ML2724 is intended for use in TDD and TDMA radios in battery-powered equipment. To minimize power consumption it is designed to switch rapidly from a low power mode (STANDBY) to an active mode. The ML2724 can also make a quick transition from receive to transmit for TDD operation. Prior to transmitting or receiving, time should be allowed for the PLL to lock and for the filters to align. When the ML2724 is operated in single-carrier TDD mode, the LO is automatically shifted by the second (low) IF frequency when the device is switched between RECEIVE and TRANSMIT modes. ML2724 carrier frequency can be changed (hopped) at any time, but is usually changed between transmissions. Carrier frequency (channel) is modified in the ML2724 by writing a corresponding new value to the PLL frequency register (Register 1) RECEIVE The ML2724 uses a double-conversion super-heterodyne receiver with a nominal second IF of 1.024MHz. The signal flow in RECEIVE mode is from the RF input, through an RF down-conversion mixer and integrated IF filter, image reject quadrature mixer, integrated Low IF filter, hard limiter, frequency to voltage converter, and data filter to the AOUT pin and data slicer where the digital NRZ data is available at the DOUT pin. A 20dB step AGC extends the dynamic range of the receiver. The ML2724 receive chain is a Low IF receiver using advanced integrated radio techniques to eliminate external IF filters and minimize external RF filter requirements. The precision filtering and demodulation circuits give improved performance over conventional radio designs using external filters while providing integration comparable to advanced direct conversion radio designs. DS2724-F-03 FINAL DATASHEET DECEMBER 2005 13 ML2724 Receive Signal Strength Indication (RSSI) RSSI is an indication of field strength. It can be used to control transmit power to conserve battery life or it may be used to determine if a given channel is occupied. See Figure 3. Figure 3: RSSI Voltage vs. Input Signal Level Automatic Filter Alignment When the ML2724 is placed in RECEIVE mode, it automatically tunes all the internal filters using the reference frequency from the FREF pin. When the chip is powered up (VDD first applied), the tuning information is reset to midrange. This self-calibration sets: Discriminator center frequency IF filter center frequency and bandwidth Receiver data low-pass filter bandwidth Transmit data low-pass filter bandwidth TRANSMIT MODE In TRANSMIT mode, the PLL is closed to eliminate frequency drift. A two-port modulator modulates both the VCO and the fractional-N PLL. The VCO is directly modulated with filtered FSK transmit data. The PLL is driven by a sigma-delta modulator, which ensures that the PLL follows the mean frequency of the modulated VCO. The transmit modulation filter is automatically tuned during every RECEIVE time, alleviating the need for production alignment. Asserting RXON enables the ML2724. The rising edge of XCEN triggers a complete calibration of all the onchip filters, which takes up to 256s, which ensures the modulation filters are aligned to prevent unwanted spurious emissions. PLL PROGRAMMING & CHANNEL SELECTION The ML2724 PLL is programmed via control register 2 to the set RF center frequency of operation of the radio. The PLL does not need to be (though it can be) reprogrammed between RECEIVE and TRANSMIT modes. Nominal channel separation is 2.048MHz, allowing for over 40 non-overlapping channels in any given location. With careful planning, channels can be programmed in 1024kHz steps as long as care is exercised to insure that two radio links will not share spectrum at any one time. The equation to determine channel center frequency from the ML2724 control register word is: fC = CHQ<0:11>*1.024MHz DS2724-F-03 FINAL DATASHEET DECEMBER 2005 14 ML2724 STANDBY MODE In STANDBY mode, the ML2724 transceiver is powered down. The only circuits active are the control interfaces, which are digital CMOS to minimize power consumption. The serial control interface and control registers remain powered up and will accept and retain programming data as long as the digital supply is present. When exiting STANDBY mode, the device may need to be kept in RECEIVE mode for up to 256s to allow for filter self-calibration. TEST MODE The RF to digital functionality of the ML2724 requires special test mode circuitry for IC production test and radio debugging. A test register, accessible via the 3-wire serial interface, controls the test multiplexers. (See Table 15). DATA INTERFACE There are two control interfaces: CONTROL and SERIAL. CONTROL INTERFACE The control interface provides immediate control and monitoring of the ML2724. Input signals include: XCEN: RXON: FREF: Transceiver enable. Places the ML2724 in Standby or Active (when asserted) modes. Receive On. Places an Active ML2724 in Receive mode when asserted. Reference frequency input Received Signal Strength Indicator: indicates the power of the received signal External Power Amplifier Control Pin Output signals include: RSSI: PAON: SERIAL INTERFACE A 3-wire serial interface (EN, DATA, CLK) is used for programming the ML2724 configuration registers, which control device mode, pin functions, PLL and reference dividers, internal test modes, and filter alignment. Data words are entered beginning with the MSB ("big-endian"). The word is divided into a leading 14-bit data field followed by a 2-bit address field. When the address field has been decoded the destination register is loaded on the rising edge of EN. Providing less than 16 bits of data will result in unpredictable behavior when EN goes high. Data and clock signals are ignored when EN is high. When EN is low, data on the DATA pin is clocked into a shift register on the rising edge of the CLK pin. This information is loaded into the target control register when EN goes high. This serial interface bus is similar to that commonly found on PLL devices. It can be efficiently programmed by either byte or 16-bit word oriented serial bus hardware. The data latches are implemented in CMOS and use minimal power when the bus is inactive.

The contents of these registers cannot be read back via this bus. The three registers are: Register 0: Register 1: Register 2: PLL Configuration Channel Frequency Data Internal Test Access Figure 5 shows a register map. Table 3 through Table 5 provide detailed diagrams of the register organization: Table 3 and Table 4 outline the PLL configuration and channel frequency registers, and Table 5 displays the filter tuning and test mode register.

Power up is defined as occurring when VDD>2.0V. The register default values are valid upon power up. CONTROL REGISTER BIT DESCRIPTIONS ADR<1:0>, All Registers, Bits 0-1 Address Bits: The ADR<1:0> bits are the least-significant bits of each register. Each register is divided into a data field and an address field. The data field is the leading field, while the last two bits clocked into the register are always the address field. When EN goes high, the address field is decoded and the addressed destination register is loaded. The last 16 bits clocked into the serial bus are loaded into the register. Clocking in less than 16 bits results in a potentially incorrect entry into the register. RES (Reserved), All Registers Reserved Bits: These bits are reserved. These bits must be cleared to 0s (zeros) for normal operation. When power is reset, all of the registers' data fields are cleared to 0s (zeros). QPP - Register 0, Bit 2 Charge Pump Polarity: This bit sets the charge pump polarity to sink or source current. For a majority of applications, this bit is cleared (QPP=0). For applications where an external inverting amplifier is used in the loop filter, this bit is set to change the charge pump polarity (see Table 6). QPP 0 1 PLL CHARGE PUMP POLARITY fc > fref Charge pump sinks current. fc > fref Charge pump sources current. Table 6: PLL Charge Pump Polarity DS2724-F-03 FINAL DATASHEET DECEMBER 2005 19 ML2724 RD0 - Register 0, Bit 3 Reference Divide: This bit sets the reference divider from the FREF pin to the reference input of the PLL phase/frequency detector to either 9 or 18 (see Table 7).

AOUT 0 1 AOUT PIN FUNCTION Transmit Power Control Data Filter Analog Output Table 8: AOUT Function Select TXCW - Register 0, Bit 6 Transmit Continuous Wave: This bit produces a continuous wave (CW) transmitter output for product test when RXON is low (see Table 9). TXCW 0 1 TRANSMIT MODULATION FSK Modulation CW - No Modulation Table 9: Transmit Modulation Mode TPC - Register 0, Bit 7 Transmit Power Control: When the AOUT bit is low, this bit controls the state of the open-drain output pin. Although this bit can be changed at any time, the AOUT pin only changes state at the falling edge of RXON (see Table 10). TPC 0 1 TPC PIN STATE High Impedance Pulled to Ground Table 10: TPC Pin State TXM - Register 0, Bit 8 Transmit Mode: This bit controls the TX RF buffer state timing mode. It must be reset to 0 for normal operation (see Table 11).

This latch is set if the supply voltage drops below 2.65V and is reset when the RXON control input goes high (see Table 12). LVLO 0 1 PAON BEHAVIOR PAON Undisturbed PAON de-asserted when VCCA<2.65V, Reset by RXON high. Table 12: LVLO Operation RCLP - Register 0, Bit 11 RSSI Clip Enable: The RCLP bit disables the RSSI clipping circuitry. With RCLP low, the RSSI output voltage is clipped to a maximum of about 2.0V at -10dBm. With RCLP high, the RSSI is not clipped. (see Table 13). RCLP 0 1 RSSI BEHAVIOR RSSI output clipped to a maximum of ~1.9V at -15dBm RSSI output not clipped Table 13: RCLP Operation CHQ <11:0> - Register 1, Bits 2-13 Channel Frequency Selection: These bits set the RF carrier frequency for the transceiver (see Table 14). With a 6.144MHz or 12.288MHz clock at the FREF pin, the channel frequency value is calculated by multiplying the CHQ value by 1.024. The recommended operating range value of the CHQ is from 2,346 to 2,424. These bits must be programmed to a valid channel frequency before XCEN is asserted.

The performance of the ML2724 is not specified in these test modes. Although primarily intended for IC test and debug, they also can help in debugging the radio system. The default (power-up) state of these bits is ATM<2:0>=<0,0,0>. When a non-zero value is written to the field, the RSSI and AOUT pins become analog test access ports, giving access to the outputs of key signal processing stages in the transceiver. During normal operation, ATM<2:0> must be set to all zeros.

The default (power up) state of these bits is DTM<2:0>=<0,0,0>. When a non-zero value is written to these fields, the DOUT and PAON pins become a digital test access port for key digital signals in the transceiver.

The ML2724 is designed to operate as an FSK transceiver in the 2.4GHz ISM band. The frequency deviation and transmit filtering is determined in the transceiver. Data on the DIN pin is filtered and presented to the transmit two-port modulator. There is no re-timing of the bits, so the transmitted FSK data takes its timing from the input data. In the receive chain, FSK demodulation, data filtering, and data slicing take place in the ML2724, and the digital data is output on the DOUT pin. Bit and word rate timing recovery are performed off chip. The data filter output is available on the AOUT pin for use with an optional external data slicer. DS2724-F-03 FINAL DATASHEET DECEMBER 2005 22 ML2724 RSSI & FREF FREF (pin 9) is the master reference frequency for the transceiver. It supplies the frequency reference for the RF channel frequency and the filter tuning. The FREF pin is a CMOS input with internal biasing resistors. It can be AC coupled to sine or square wave source. The FREF input can also be driven by a CMOS logic output. The frequency of the FREF input is limited to one of: 6.144MHz or 12.288MHz. The Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) pin supplies a voltage proportional to the logarithm of the received power level. It is normally connected to the input of a low speed ADC and is used during channel scanning to detect clear channels on which the radio may transmit. It can also be used to set transmit power to optimize power consumption while maintaining an acceptable bit error rate (BER). PA CONTROL OUTPUTS (PAON & AOUT) The PAON (PA control) is a CMOS output that controls an optional off-chip RF PA. It outputs a logic high when the PA should be enabled and a logic low at all other times. This output is inhibited when the PLL fails to lock. AOUT (pin 7) normally supplies the analog (not data-sliced) data output, but it can also be configured as an open-drain output for transmit power control. This mode is controlled by the TPC bit in Register 0. This bit can be changed at any time, but the AOUT pin will not change mode until the beginning of the next transmit slot, triggered by a falling edge on Table 17 for details). RXON (see Figure 6 and In analog test modes the RSSI and AOUT pins become analog test access ports that allow the user to observe internal signals in the ML2724. RXON SYMBOL T1 PAON Output from TRFO t1 t4 t2 t3 PARAMETER RXON falling edge to PAON rising edge RXON rising edge to PLL frequency shift RXON rising edge to RECEIVE mode RXON rising edge to PAON falling edge TIME/S 62.5 6.5 70 < 0.1 T2 T3 T4 Figure 6: Power Amplifier Interface Table 17: Power Amplifier Timing RF INTERFACE: RXI & TXO/TXOB The RXI receive input (pin 17) and the TXO/TXOB differential transmit outputs (pins 21 and 22) are the only RF I/O pins. The RXI pin requires a simple impedance matching network for optimum input noise figure. The TXO/TXOB pins require a matching network for maximum power output into the RF power amp. If a single ended output is preferred, the signal from the TXO pin can be matched to the power amp and the TXOB output can be shunted to a power supply through a dummy load. The RF input and output ground (pin 18) must have a direct connection to the RF ground plane, and the RF power supply pins must be decoupled to the same ground plane as close to the device as possible.
